Ordered a 4090 Aorus Master as a back up card at 3pm which is now shipped but I already have 4090 Suprim being shipped. Not sure what to keep to be honest as I wanted the aorus master as it’s like £250 more but has 1 year extra warranty. Can’t seem to find any reviews on the Aorus Master either. Nice position to be in to be honest though as I didn’t think I would get any card at one point!

MSI's software is god awful, so I know which I would stick with.

The latter is true, but you can perceive frame time jitter on subconscious level (it just feels wrong, even though you can't say why at first). Hence, it's best to have stable frame time even if a bit higher, than jitter all over the place, even if on average much lower. That said, only top trained e-sport young players can say lowering frame time gives them some advantage - for most people it doesn't matter much, aside what I said above.

Personally, I am happy with stable 90+ FPS most of the time, as 60 feels already not fluid enough and 75-80 is getting there, but 90+ is really nice. Anything above 100 is... eh... nice? Just, not sure why. :) That's on OLED screen with really low latency of pixels, that is. Much slower IPS (and even worse most VA) won't even show any real difference with high refresh rate, as it's just too slow to react anyway. However, high FPS sell very well! :)

Yup it was since getting the QD-OLEd that I realised just how much slower the pixels are on LCDs. I also have a Huawei Mateview GT which is VA but is Freesync 165Hz - That doesn't even compare lol!

One thing to remember about NVCPL, as I learned not long ago myself, is that many settings there it only applies to tested and approved by NVIDIA titles. If game hasn't been approved it won't apply certain things, e.g. Ambient Occlusion settings, MFSAA and quite a few other. There's a post on NVIDIA's website that explain what each of these options do and whether they're global or apply only to specific approved titles - worth reading. Too bad I don't have that link on hand now, to send you, but it wasn't hard to find in Google when I tried.

I did read some Nvidia pages on the frametime stuff mentioned, I will dig this out too. They do seem to go very in depth with this sort of stuff which is nice to see. Not just about selling us expensive GPUs :p
 
Sorry if it's been mentioned. But what in the F is going on here. 50%+ raster performance uplift between 4090 and 4080 16GB. That card should be sub €1000 then. They have it ass about face. You pay a premium for the uber elite tier. You know, that extra 15-20% max for d!ck swinging idiot with more money then sense. You don't sell us half the card for 3/4 the price. Zero value in either 4080. Nvidia basically telling 3000 series owners drop 2k+ on a 4090 or get screwed!

They’ve given themselves plenty of space for Ti/Super variants, unlike with the 3000 series.

I also think honestly they want to push people in to 4090’s. They are more profitable. They seem to have positioned the 4080 16gb at such a price point that most people would think ‘I’m already spending £1200 I might as well push to the 4090!’.

For raster the 4080s are both basically Turding
